This invention relates to wrap-robes and more particularly to a garmentformed of one piece of material adapted to be wrapped around the body inorder to protect the wearer from the elements.

The principal object of this invention is to provide a robe which can bemade from an ordinary piece of cloth or a blanket, which requires nospecial fitting or sewing, and when completed is perfectly flat.

Another object of this invention is the pro-vision of a robe which canbe made from one straight piece of material without any wastage, whichcan be easily slipped on, and taken off with the least amount ofinconvenience or effort, and can be folded in a compact form when not inuse.

Other objects will appear as the disclosure progresses. The drawings areintended merely to indicate a possible embodiment of the invention. Itis obvious, therefore, that the actual needs of manufacture maynecessitate certain mechanical changes. It is, therefore, not intendedto limit the invention F to the embodiment illustrated, but rather todefine such limits in the appended claims.

By changing the material to suit conditions, this garment can be usedfor beachrobes, bath-robes, hospital robes and the like.

For a more detailed understanding of the invention, attention is nowcalled to the drawings in which a preferred embodiment is shownillustrated. In these drawings. like parts are designated by likereference characters in all of the views.

Figure 1 is a view showing the wrap-robe in an open or fiat position. v

Figure 2 is a view showing the upper part folded down.

Figure 3 is a detail.

Figure 4 is a view showing the partially closed.

Figure 5 is a view showing the'robe completely closed.

Figure 6 is a detail.

Referring now to the drawings, in detail in which like referencecharacters denote like parts in all of the views, numeral 1 designates aflat seamless body portion, 2 and 3 cut-outs defining a collar 4, and 5and 6 corner portions, which when turned down, form an inner vest 7 asnoted in Figure 2. Buttons 8 and buttonholes' 9 are provided forbuttoning the vest, and at o posite ends of the vest are slits 10 and 11aving snap wrap-robe which tend to keep the ends 14 and 15 against thebody of the wearer when the arms are folded, as shown in Fig. 5.

The mode of applying this garment to the body of the wearer is asfollows. The arms are passed through the arm loops 13 as noted in Figure1, the collar 4 turned down, and the corner portions 5 and 6 are foldedon lines 16 and 17 over the shoulders forming the inner vest 7, andbuttoned. The arms are then folded, folding the ends 14 and 15 on lines18 and 19 over the front of the body.

If preferable, the vest 7 may be worn over the front part of the garmentas shown in Figure 6. It is thought from the fore going description thatthe advantages and novel features of our invention will be readilyapparent,
